What dinner type food goes good with Greek Salad?

Answer
Since you are having a greek salad i would go with a Greek dinner.
But you can always have normal rice and etc.

My fiances step dad is greek and he has greek night.

here is some good recipes from him-

GREEK GRILLED GROUPER

2 grouper filet
Greek seasoning (powder kind found in spices)
1 small can stewed tomatoes (with garlic variety)
1 small can chopped black olives

Place fish filet in oil-sprayed (Pam) foil pan. Coat with Greek powder seasoning. Spread stewed tomatoes on top of fish filet. Sprinkle with Greek seasoning again. Top with chopped black olives. Lightly sprinkle with Greek seasoning again. (DO NOT SALT)
Cover with foil and seal around sides of pan. Put pan on hot grill. Cook on medium head for about 45 minutes to 1 hour depending on thickness of fish filets. You may squeeze lemon juice on top after cooking if you desire a more tart tasting fish.

This can be done with any kind of fish. Shark is excellent.

Romantic Setting for Dinner Tonight?

misskent12

I'm planning a romantic dinner tonight for my boyfriend and need some presentation ideas. Dinner placing, lighting, music, all that. I'm making tortellini pasta and a salad and I'm usually not to romantic so I'm a little stuck. I have an hour to prepare. Please help!

Answer
Dinner placing:
.......................Glass.......
Fork Plate Knife Spoon

Lighting:
Very Dim (Even if you are beautiful:~)
---Candles (2 or 3)
-------1 between both of you
-------the others near something reflective or in corners

Music:
Something without words - Instumental only
---this will allow for focus to be on mood rather than lyrics

Extras:
---Perfume (Put this on now - later it will be too strong)
---Smell (anything to freshen up the air)
---------scented candles
---------Glade, Air Wicks, incense, Febreeze, etc.
---Display the drinks (even soda) in a wine type glass (fancy)
---After dinner mints ( chocolate anything )

Plan B - If you are planing it to go further...
Set up the same amenities elsewhere
clean elsewhere
allow for protection

ENJOY
